Great View and Nicely Appointed

Great 180 view of lake with mountains opposite. Well appointed, fully equipped, and updated. There is a nice walking route connecting some nearby towns but you’ll want to drive to other towns for meals and outings (plenty enough close by) - not much in Colonno itself. The hillside is what gives you the view but also presents some “fun challenges” for street parking if the garage is not a good fit for for your vehicle size. All in all, a very fine option for couples, less so for children given the need to drive to most activities.

Heerlijk!

Wij hebben een hele fijne tijd gehad in Colonne. Appartement was heerlijk, heel netjes en compleet ingericht. Overal aan gedacht👍 En het uitzicht is fantastisch! Enige minpuntje vonden wij de douche, erg krap en zwakke waterstraal. Maar verder helemaal top!

Loving Lake Como

Quite difficult to get to the villa but well worth it!! The accommodation is in excellent condition and has all the amenities to enjoy a self-catering holiday. It has beautiful views of Lake Como and the surrounding mountains. Thanks to our host, Rachel, who was always available to answer any queries.

Fantastic property with stunning view

This is a lovely property, well equipped, well decorated in a tranquil setting. We visited with 3 children, and although the property is suitable for children were very conscious of how quite the area is, especially with retired couples living in the two properties below. We also had a large vehicle which did not fit in the underground parking and as the drive was very steep was concerned the hand break would not hold. Lots to do in the area and nice pool. We loved the property and the area but think it would be better with older children and a smaller car.

About the host

Hosted by Rachel Doerr

Having spent many a happy year as a child in this part of Italy, and in particular on Lake Como, I have always wanted to come back here and own a property. Staying last year at Villa D'Este, sitting in the garden watching the boats on the lake as the shadows moved across the mountains with the sun setting, I made up my mind to own my own place there. After many months of looking, we came across this new build large, airy and spacious apartment with drop-dead views - and I was sold! To own there is the fulfillment of a dream - now having the opportunity to share the beauty and tranquillity with others is the culmination of the dream. Don't just take my word for it - try it; we had guests this week who want to come back for two weeks next year - that is what Vista Lago does to you!

Why they chose this property

We set out to furnish this property on a no expense spared basis. It is an apartment in a very small block - there are 4 other residents - and so it is quiet, with what feels like exclusive use of the pool! You are part of a small lake village, so yes occasionally dogs bark, or you can hear the clink of glasses as the locals sit down to their dinner in the evening. To sit on the terrace, with 180 degree uninterrupted views of the lake, be it as the sun is coming up in the morning and you start to see the ripple on the water of the lake caused by the lake paddlesteamer or as the sun sets in the evening and the shadows on the hillsides on the other side of the lake make the most beautiful of shapes, Vista Lago is, to us, unique. Add in the pool, the sun terrace around the pool - and there is a terrace off our front door that allows you to sit and watch the kids playing in the pool - truly a piece of paradise for people of all ages.

What makes this property unique

The view. The peacefulness. The pool. The standard of furnishing. The position. all unique to us...……... we love spending time with friends and showing the around the beautiful area.... there is something for everyone!
